[tidal geyser]

ofc

the major point of that one is the unified memory

a like 800-1200$ laptop will give you the same gpu/ gaming performance

[fallen sky]

Finally I got someone to buy my pc 🙏🙏🙏

This is a blessing

lost $100 but that’s to be expected when it’s used

[kindred drift]

i just changed my cpu, ram and motherboard and now its telling me to reactivate windows. is this normal?

[modest void]

Yeah, I actually learned about that phenomenon in the LTT YouTube videos! It’s normal, I suppose, at least for Microsoft. I think Linus also ranted about it.

[kindred drift]

so i just have to buy a new windows key now?????

[tidal geyser]

windows is free to install and use

[kindred drift]

i know i dont want the water mark

[tidal geyser]

too bad

[calm idol]

ltt made a vid on a bunch of ways of activating windows, watch that and use the free option

[tidal geyser]

i never sent him anything in the DMs

[calm idol]

good 😄

[granite osprey]

what is the best cpu i can get for 300 euros

[tidal geyser]

7800X3D

or if not gaming 13900k

but with that 13900k you do run the risk of it being fucked

[granite osprey]

well i hope so does ram speed matter alot in gaming

like the jump from 3200 to 6k

[calm idol]

you giving out 100€ coupons?

[fallen sky]

Guys

I got my new laptop

acer 16 swift ai

Nice 120hz OLED

[tidal geyser]

good luck

[tidal geyser]

used

[granite osprey]

how much aura does the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X Prozessor have

is it a big downgrade due to it not having 3d cache

[tidal geyser]

well

what is the chance you are going to put this with a 4060

also pleas for the love of god do no build a pc piece by piece in here

[willow socket]

negative aura lol

[granite osprey]

i have a rx 7800xt

[tidal geyser]

fhew

[granite osprey]

minus aura i know

[tidal geyser]

make a post in https://discord.com/channels/375436620578684930/1106613567966429224 then list everything you have now, country then total budget

[gentle kestrel]

unless you're buying a much higher end gpu i don't see the point in getting the 9800x3d for most systems

it's objectively faster but you'd be better off with the cheaper cpu and a better gpu unless you play niche games like mmos that like the cache more

[granite osprey]

i was thinking to sell my rtx 3070 that lays on the ground and my rx 7800xt and go back to nvdia (better drivers and software)

[tidal geyser]

yeah maybe last gen on nvidia

[gentle kestrel]

unless you're buying like a 5080 or higher i'd just keep the 9700x

[tidal geyser]

current gen drivers are just not stable

[gentle kestrel]

more like the current drivers just aren't stable

[tidal geyser]

i think its 3 today alone in here i saw having major issues

[gentle kestrel]

everytime i update past 566.36 something breaks and i just go back

[tidal geyser]

sadly rtx 5000 cant do the same

[gentle kestrel]

yeah

i wanna say it's 572.06 that's semi stable for most 50 cards?

[ripe sable]

Does using 2 dpi cables impact smoothes in gaming

compare to usin 1'

[granite osprey]

dunno bro

[tidal geyser]

no clue i have just labeled every driver unstable

[tidal geyser]

2dpi????

[ripe sable]

before I used 1 240 hz monitor and now I use 2 and my game feels less smoth

[steel umbra]

2.0 vs 1.4?

[quaint hatch]

Hey but its fun!

(As i say when i have yet to take a step forward)

[ripe sable]

and if I have 3 monitos should IK use the motherboard for 1 or 2 of them for smoother game

[tidal geyser]

the motherboard display outs are utter trash just ask piece over there

[tidal geyser]

piece tell him what happens when you use the motherboards display out

[steel umbra]

wait, two displayport cables?

no most monitors and gpus don't support that

[ripe sable]

I have 2 240hz montiros

and use display forf both

now my games feels bad and even worse when susing 3 montiors

My fps is droping like 100m to

[plush wren]

hello team

[steel umbra]

so, single displayport to three separate monitors

daisychained

just plug each dp from gpu into each montior

[ripe sable]

no 3 cables to 3 monitors

[steel umbra]

daisychained?

dp in monitor, dp out monitor

[ripe sable]

using 3 feels worse than using 1

[steel umbra]

3 what

[ripe sable]

3 montiors I just sent a picture

[fallen sky]

What’s that supposed to mean

[tidal geyser]

acer aint perfect at making laptops

[plush wren]

probably cause u have one thats like 500 meters away from the other 2

if ur playing fps games with someone 2 monitors is peak

[ripe sable]

SO I should just use 2 then

[fallen sky]

It’ll do the job

[steel umbra]

use three cables for three monitors

[tidal geyser]

i would just put the pc on the floor at that point

[steel umbra]

from the gpu

[ripe sable]

but im lagging woth 3 moniros

[steel umbra]

dust

[steel umbra]

are you daisychaining the monitors or not

[tidal geyser]

is on the desk too

[steel umbra]

less

[ripe sable]

what is that

[tidal geyser]

pleas get a vacuum

[steel umbra]

ther more dust on the ground

naturally

[tidal geyser]

but pc is not a vacuume

[ripe sable]

what is daisychaining tghe montiors

[tidal geyser]

cheese

[steel umbra]

i vacuum my corner every week or so

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/chat-cat-fromage-goatplaybanjo-gif-14222499703250118481

[steel umbra]

dust just likes to be on the ground

[tidal geyser]

anyways there is not enough dust on the ground for me to give one shit

[steel umbra]

also even worse when you have bottom intake fans 😂

[fringe prairie]

swift is pretty decent actually

[steel umbra]

and pc on der ground

[tidal geyser]

o yeah that

[tidal geyser]

o nice, how does the hinges mount, metal frame or you know just plastic

well straight to plastic vs metal inserts

[plush wren]

hao

[steel umbra]

you may be bandwidth limited by one cable

[tidal geyser]

i have yet to see a display irl that can do that

[steel umbra]

quite few can do that acwually

[tidal geyser]

metal frame tbf dis on 14" one

[steel umbra]

@ripe sable did you possibly do this?

[fringe prairie]

it's all metal apparently

chassis is all metal as well surprisingly, thought it would be a mix of metal and plastic

[steel umbra]

or is there any way you disabled dsc

[tidal geyser]

ok yeah that laptop looks awsome yet to see screen side tho

[fringe prairie]

swift edge is their more premium option

[steel umbra]

edge is microsoft's premium option 🤣

[fringe prairie]

ehhhhhh close enough

[tidal geyser]

nau i need MOAR

[fringe prairie]

it's one of the cheaper not shit lunar lake laptops

[tidal geyser]

nice

not sure how i feel about the fans tho

or not

[ripe sable]

My fps is droping like 200 in fortnite after i open it upp and blow in my pc to clean the dust How can i know if sometihng is broken Cuz i think it is

[tidal geyser]

What have you checked so far

[ripe sable]

Temps seems fine

But the fps is droping for fortnite and i feel like its the ram or CPU

Performance mode

[tidal geyser]

Are you sure the ram is 1:1 if amd

[tidal geyser]

So yes

[ripe sable]

What is that

I could not have broken anyrgijng just by blowing the pc right i also did flip it around

[steel umbra]

could be something is wrong after unplugging the pc from power

[ripe sable]

How can I find the problem and fix it

[tidal geyser]

Imagine if its just xmp or rebar being turned off

[steel umbra]

which i would suspect is a windows issue or something in bios got 🔄

[ripe sable]

I’ll check if xmp is on

It was before, I did clean my room and unplugged everything

To set up the new monitors

[thorn pewter]

No🫶

[rigid fjord]

nope, not bad at all, but depending on how you have it set up, you'd want to tune the fan curves a fair bit if you do

[trim gyro]

though there are some spots where it pretty much only exists so that you can put a radiator

[ripe sable]

Guys

I used a towel to clean my in my pc could that have destroyed anything

[trim gyro]

if you used tap water, it could short a circuit

[clear canyon]

Why would you use a towel

[ripe sable]

No idea

[trim gyro]

you could yank out a capacitor or tear a resistor if you're rough

[frigid blade]

Why are you using a towel instead of an air can or something

[clear canyon]

Send pictures

[quaint hatch]

I mean it ran my shit ok idk

[frigid blade]

Yah, the fibers on the towel can catch onto tiny parts on the board

[quaint hatch]

It wasnt le best but it worked

[ripe sable]

But I only cleaned this part with a towel to take out the dust

[frigid blade]

You didn’t touch the board with it?

[ripe sable]

It could only have touched the gpu fans if it touched anything

No I did not

[frigid blade]

Then what’s the issue, it’s not booting?

[ripe sable]

It’s starting but my fps is dripping with like 100

For Fortnite wich is cpu and ram heavy so no idea what could have went wrong

[clear canyon]

Is the temps fine?

[clear canyon]

Its gpu heavy

[ripe sable]

Temps are fine

Fortnite is not gpu heavy

[clear canyon]

Yeah it is lol

[frigid blade]

It is on higher quality

[clear canyon]

Ur just running it on potato settings

[ripe sable]

But I play performance mode

No one is using high settings for Fortnite

[clear canyon]

Many do

[frigid blade]

I do

[ripe sable]

Uncles it’s for benchmarks

[frigid blade]

I play all my games highest quality because I enjoy the game instead of sweating

[plush wren]

https://tenor.com/view/chat-cat-fromage-goatplaybanjo-gif-14222499703250118481

[clear canyon]

Same

[frigid blade]

Don’t need 999 fps

[empty quartz]

[clear canyon]

Lmao

Whats the test

[empty quartz]

Not a test

[fallen sky]

@tidal geyser would u like to suggest a windows laptop that isn’t acer so I can get ideas

[clear canyon]

I ment training

[empty quartz]

Training for work

Aasp

[clear canyon]

Fun lol

[empty quartz]

Yeah

My bestie only had to do 24 hours of traning total at her job

[ripe sable]

Could dust have hurt the gpu in that spot

Or if I blow at it

[clear canyon]

Is ur pc using the right gpu?

[ripe sable]

Prob

[dapper oar]

i have 500gb of available space but for some reason only have 40gb of shrinkable space, why?

[clear canyon]

Why are you shrinking a drive?

[empty quartz]

@clear canyon i have to do >60 hours worth of training

[clear canyon]

Why

What are you doing?

[bronze summit]

So the Lancool 207 is a pretty decent piece of tech and I want to work on it going for full air flow and fans but the problem is I want it to be good on aero and shit

[dapper oar]

dual booting an iso

[empty quartz]

Its for my job

[clear canyon]

Ik that lol

[empty quartz]

Apple certifications basically

[clear canyon]

Its that long?

Wow

[empty quartz]

Theres more

[quaint hatch]

when there's more, there's more lore

but the core of lore always has more

[ripe lantern]

PC not booting, red and orange ez debug light on

CPU and dram light are on

[strong elk]

so I was watching a video from 2 years ago on Level1Tech ( https://youtu.be/P58VqVvDjxo?si=Wm9xK1uVL8nHynON ) as I just got an Asrock X870E Nova WiFi and planning to get a 9900X
here is the thing .... I am not sure if 2 kits of 2x32 will work at EXPO profile
this is the link to the kit that I am planning to buy 2 of -> https://www.corsair.com/ca/en/p/memory/cmp64gx5m2b6000z30/dominator-titanium-rgb-2x32gb-ddr5-dram-6000mt-s-cl30-amd-memory-kit-white-cmp64gx5m2b6000z30#tab-techspecs

[ripe lantern]

Ok only blinking orange dram light on

[tired bear]

put the ram in the 2nd slot

[calm idol]

running more than 2 sticks is basically never working at expo speeds and latencies on am5

[ripe lantern]

What's the difference

[tired bear]

RTFM is the diffrence

[ripe lantern]

MMB 2 or MMA2

[ripe lantern]

It's in two

[ripe lantern]

As u can see in my picture it is

[cosmic pagoda]

is there a good software to clip the last couple of secs/mins?

[ripe lantern]

Medal

Or obs

[cosmic pagoda]

since i have the very debloated windows version the gamebar isnt installed

[tired bear]

unplug the pc, press the pwr button for 10 seconds, take out cmos battery, reinstall it and turn the pc on
wait for up to few minutes for ram training to take place, speed of ram training will depend on installed ram capacity

[cosmic pagoda]

if its installed once, will it always launch upon pc start and "record" or do i haveto boot it every time

[ripe lantern]

You can choose

[tired bear]

if you have nvidia app you can turn on nvidia highlights and instant reply

[cosmic pagoda]

i want it to be there 24/7

[cosmic pagoda]

no nvidia, full AMD

[tired bear]

it will trash your ssd tho
they are not designed for constant writes at all

[cosmic pagoda]

yeah so

then imma buy a new nvme after what, 5 years?

used the gamebar all the time on my old setup

[tired bear]

use a dedicated drive for it so you dont nuke your windows install

[cosmic pagoda]

o no i lost 1% over a year

[plush wren]

Satanism

[tired bear]

all ssd are rated for TB Written
your 1st one is rated for 220TB, other one is rated for 1000TB

[cosmic pagoda]

do you deadass even know what ur talkin abt

alot of stuff is rated for less than it can do

[tired bear]

you do you but dont come crying about your data loss

[fallen sky]

Why is my laptops ram at 52% during idle 💔

[cosmic pagoda]

important stuff isnt saved on the nvme i use daily. important stuff is in the cloud and on a seperate storage

[ripe lantern]

Orange light still on idk what to do

Jumped cmos, swapped rams, moved it around, did everything

[cosmic pagoda]

what board do you have

[halcyon beacon]

Yuh that doesn't mean you should use them for outside of their intended usecase =p

[tired bear]

is ram on the qvl?

[ripe lantern]

B650 plus

[ripe lantern]

How do I check

B650 gaming plus wifi

[tired bear]

Read the manufacturer provided documentation

[ripe lantern]

Corsair Vengeance RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6400 CL36 Memory

I can't find it

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hwtyRV

[cosmic pagoda]

@ripe lantern
so far what ive read online ur board does "RAM Training" and you gotta leave it on for a couple of mins, 2-3 from what ibe read. it it still wont boot after 5-10 mins you should remove one ram and retry. dunno if you did it alrdy, but maybe my lil research can help.

[ripe lantern]

We tried that, like 5 times

[cosmic pagoda]

bios update?

and A2 is apperantly the go-to slot.

[hidden hill]

Yoooo computers fixed

Was a windows issue lmao

Corrupt installation, whoever said they don’t trust oem installations was right lmao

[lean arch]

What's the difference between a 3060 laptop and a 4050 laptop? Which has a better price per performance?

Its used for blender animations

[hidden hill]

Idk how windows could have even caused the gray gpu failure screen, so weird

[silver heron]

guys

I own a computer

[hidden hill]

Congrats

[silver heron]

if I upgrade my CPU to this one, can my current cooler can handle it

I'm using Corsair 240 AIO H100i atm

with 12700K

[clear canyon]

What is ur current cpu

[clear canyon]

Ah, you will probably need a bios update too, but yeah it should be fine

[ripe sable]

Could using a towel to clean of some dust from my psu hurt it and lowered my fps

[fallen sky]

Why would it

Just use a can of air

[wheat torrent]

someone sends this screenshot

what the fuck 😭

[hidden hill]

What does the bios designation mean for this usb port?

Can I just use the port like normal?

[unkempt badge]

Its used for updates

[unkempt badge]

yeah

[wheat torrent]

if I get one system error I might let it slide sometimes it happens, at 2 system errors thats when something is wrong and I do a full reinstall, how can someone end up with this 😭

[hidden hill]

Ok ty

Btw how can I tell what the main display port is that shows up on boot?

On a 5080

Would trial and error it if it wasn’t such a nightmare to access the io panel

[foggy marsh]

I don’t think there is a way to tell but for me on multiple gpus it was the second one from the bottom

[hidden hill]

So center display port?

Ty

[steel umbra]

any should

[steel umbra]

it’s for it’s a regular port + bios flashing

you’re supposted to put your usb there when doing bios flashback button method

[empty quartz]

@steel umbra guess the fakes

Guess which pair are the fakes*

[abstract rampart]

Not sure if it's visible from the photo. Monitor is almost 8-9 years old, and on some occasions is showing "pixel tearing" like this. Time to change despite it still working?

[peak knot]

lol the right ones are real id guess

[calm idol]

left?

[peak knot]

the fakes are too blue hued it seems

[calm idol]

what threw me of was the giant ass black mesh on the left ones

[steel umbra]

left?

first pic

[empty quartz]

The right ones are the fakes

The left ones are only blue because of my jeans staining the case 💀

[steel umbra]

bruh

[empty quartz]

@peak knot listen to the video clip

Easy way to hear which are the fakes

[calm idol]

guess im used to seeing 2nd gen. didnt know or forgot that 1st gen had those giant meshes

[empty quartz]

Either way, airpods cases arent supposed to rattle like that even with the earbuds in the case

[steel umbra]

we got it all wong 🔥

[empty quartz]

Also, the font/size is wrong on the fakes

The words are too far apart

And the hinge is uneven, should have equal spacing where it attaches to the plastic

[swift moss]

how is onshape lagging wtf 😭

[empty quartz]

Offshape 🗣️🗣️🗣️

[steel umbra]

i aint a chatbot how i’m supposted to spot that

[swift moss]

i only got this running

[steel umbra]

yeah the assy is way too weird

[swift moss]

im quite proud of my wheelbase design :D

[steel umbra]

it looks like two wheeled turret

[swift moss]

lmfao its a sumo bot

i just wanted to make it for fun to 1v1 my friend at a local comp

i want to add a co2 piston to push or flip enemies i havent decided yet

not against the rules somehow

i wanted to have a radar ultrasonic scanner but like that sounded a little bit unnecesary as I only have 1 opponent

i can either chose the strategy of push opponent out or flip opponent

[steel umbra]

what if they accounted for that

[swift moss]

idk lol

[steel umbra]

what if they have that plan

[swift moss]

my friend whats to do a solenoid flipper

[swift moss]

im not entirely sure how I can make a good sumo bot

i've never actually done this before

but from watching some others most seem to just push out

[steel umbra]

are smashers allowed?

[swift moss]

no lol

this is their website rules
the entire sumo robot and all of its components must fit within a 20 cm X 20 cm X 20 cm (8” X 8” X 8”) cubic space at the start of each bout, and have a weight of less than 1.5 kg (3.3 lb)
during a bout, a sumo robot may unfold or expand one or more parts of itself to become larger than 20 cm in any or all direction(s)
robots may not drop or eject any parts of themselves or any other materials onto or out of the ring – any part separated from the robot will be treated as a mechanical failure, forfeiting that bout to their opponent
robots may not mark, adhere to, or damage the ring in any way – only wheels, skids, or contact sensors are allowed to be in contact with the ring
robots may not damage their opponent deliberately in any way – robots designed to deliberately damage their opponents will be disqualified from the competition (accidental damage from an opponent’s robot pushing on parts of your robot should be anticipated and planned for)
parts of robots designed to cause damage to an opposing robot will be required to be removed, or the robot may be disqualified from competition
robots are allowed to emit signals for the purpose of locating and identifying their opponents, and for detecting the edge of the wrestling ring, but are not allowed to continuously emit ‘jamming’ signals designed to overwhelm their opponent’s sensors

---

all robots must use two identical gear motors, wheels, and a common battery pack (or battery voltage, at the discretion of the organizers) for their motive propulsion
additional motors of any type (e.g. DC, servo, stepper, etc.) are allowed on the robot for functions other than propulsion (e.g. rotating sonar sensor, fork-lift arms, shovel scoops, etc.)
additional battery systems are allowed for powering circuits other than those driving the propulsion motors

[steel umbra]

robots not deliberately damaging their opponents is bit vague

what if your build is a high rpm spinner and your opponent runs into you and their bot crumbles

[swift moss]

lmfao

i was thinking along the cheesing lines as well

[proper gull]

If you continue reading this is covered

[thorn pewter]

Am eating both of you’re bread right now👍

Yes you read me right

Now you have no bread to ur name Ethan

[steel umbra]

yeah but what if the spinner is… designed to flip your enemy, it can for sure also damage the enemy bot at the same time…

if you equip it with wedges

[hidden hill]

hmm any port i tried kept showing the bios screen on my right monitor, kind of annoying

got 3 and i want it to show up on my main center monitor

not a big deal though, its whatever

was you!, you were right floppa

[steel umbra]

oh i think you’ll have to change that in the bios

[hidden hill]

oh you choose it in the bios? okay ty!

oh right i forgot to ask about this

would having my right monitor i use for youtube and other media, at 4k be a big performance hit?

if so i could totally drop it to 1440 or 1080, most videos arent even in 4k

[azure topaz]

goppa knows all

[hidden hill]

lol

[steel umbra]

for youtube?

no, that barely uses your gpu

and also possible more of other parts of the gpu which are less used by games for example

[hidden hill]

i meant for games, so in this scenario im playing a game on the center screen, discord streaming on the left, and watching a video on the right

just wondering if its costing fps or anything

[steel umbra]

yes that’s fine

[steel umbra]

100 fps reduced to 98.5 fps for example

[hidden hill]

if i get more fps from having it at a lower res then id totally swap

[hidden hill]

going from 4k to 2k?

[azure topaz]

brother

you have a 3000$ computer

please stop thinking about how to min max fps

[hidden hill]

let me min max in peace 😦

[azure topaz]

just play your video games 😭

[hidden hill]

lmao

[steel umbra]

no, running youtube

on a secondary display

[bronze summit]

Depends on the games

[azure topaz]

is less than 1% affecting any of your games in a significant matter

[steel umbra]

btw 1440p / qhd 2k

2k is different from qhd

[azure topaz]

qhd = 4x 1080p = 4K

[steel umbra]

2.56k 🤣

[thorn pewter]

Huh

Wait what

[azure topaz]

quad hd bro

[cerulean rose]

Y'all ever have a issue that appears out of nowhere and you can't find the answer anywhere?

[thorn pewter]

Yeh?

What about it am so confused😭🥺

[azure topaz]

maybe im the stewpid one

anyways im goin back to munchin

[steel umbra]

just call them what most people already call them (2k dci = 2048p x 1080p) not fhd or qhd

the K naming scheme starts at 4K iirc

[formal sonnet]

Yes, almost everyday.

[steel umbra]

also calling 1440p “2k” would be wrong either way because 2560p is rounded up to 3k

and 1440p is… also not 2k

maybe if you do 1440 + 2560 : 2 then you get exactly 2k

but uhh, that doesn’t work like that does it?

because when you do 2160 + 3840 (4k) you get 6k which when you divide by two will get you 3k

[sly halo]

Okay so i can't decide between two laptops, The LOQ has 8 more gigs of DDR5 ram and mentions the Srgb and TGP which is 115w with 7435 HS

The victus doesn't mention TGP or Srgb but has the i7 with the same gpu but DDR4 ram

[cerulean rose]

yeah, im having one of those rn

[steel umbra]

same with 8k. and other resolutions, so it just doesn’t make much sense to call 1440p 2k

[steel umbra]

btw xx35hs is zen 3+

you’re not getting a very recent architecture just recently refreshed

[sly halo]

Thats true but I was told the GPU isnt as useful if it doesnt draw in as much power, and will the i7 compensate for that?

[steel umbra]

are there any proper reviews of the victus?

[sly halo]

They dont mention the TGP and have ddr4 ram

[sly halo]

There are reviews under this which pertain to a different model with different specs

[steel umbra]

not very useful

what are the prices

[sly halo]

Exactly the same

Couldn't find much on reddit or youtube so I was wondering if the cpu will compensate for the (potential) dip in TGP and the DDR4 ram

[steel umbra]

it depends on the task, if it’s more ram intensive or cpu intensive, gpu intensive

[sly halo]

Well gaming, purely in terms of performance

[steel umbra]

you’ll have to buy more ram for that ddr5 system

[sly halo]

It's already 24

The DDR4 system however has 16

[steel umbra]

oh i’m blind i read it as 8gb ddr5

[sly halo]

I meant 8 more my bad

[steel umbra]

from their lineups which one has better build quality?

[hidden hill]

I was just trying to type fast, I’m sure you understood what I meant

[silent peak]

what usb mic would yall recommend for around $50 or so using it mainly for discord and light streaming

[steel umbra]

yes but other people might not

[hidden hill]

true

[steel umbra]

pretty sure the chinese 🇨🇳 have cooked up something decent

[sly halo]

Techically the LOQ but some previous models have had motherboard issues

If HP had disclosed the TGP and SRGB rating of the display it would make it so much easier

Can't be that fucking hard can it

[steel umbra]

hmmm, well, how much will you use your cpu?

if it’s like gaming while having a lot of tabs open in the backrgound get the loq

[steady talon]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/nQgBdb

Would a 5700x3d and 32 GBs ram be a good upgrade for 270£ ?

[sly halo]

Just purely gaming nothing else I have a mac for everything else

[steel umbra]

i’m honestly not sure sorry

[sand epoch]

is the 6900xt supposed to be more expensive than the 7900xt? lol

[steel umbra]

do the games you play benifit from extra/better ram?

[grizzled frost]

all hail the drive density

[sly halo]

Okay so I checked its 75W TGP for the Victus with 70% SRGB now just tell me will the ddr5 ram and the GPU running better compensate for the worse CPU since the screen is better on the LOQ?

LOQ
4060 on 115W TGP
Ryzen 7435HS
24GB DDR5 RAM
100% sRGB Display

Victus
4060 on 75W TGP
Intel i7 13th Gen
16GB DDR4 RAM
70% sRGB Display

Exact same price

[versed ferry]

Nope. GPU prices have just been all over the fucking place since the crypto mining, covid, and AI trifecta of garbage.

My 3090ti is technically worth more now then when I bought it.

To be fair I got mine brand new for half off MSRP, but still.

[hollow creek]

7435HS is no slouch either

you give an already very good chip with a full power mobile 4060 = stonks performance

LOQ is a much more logical choice

also, mentioning DDR5 now, it will most definitely be better

[sly halo]

I'll most probably end up purchasing that it's just support is dodging my questions, the reviews for the Victus said 75W TGP but the customer support keeps telling me "It has the 4060 which usually ranges from 35W to 115W"

I was mainly concerned about people having hardware concers like motherboard defects with previous models of the LOQ , not this one. Apart from that it's a clear choice if the other specs compensate for the CPU, which I've been told they do.

[hollow creek]

considering their differences, i'd take amd efficiency over intel's 5-10% cpu only performance uplift

also DDR5

also, full power 4060

Also, much better screen

[sly halo]

the lack of igpu wont make any performance differences right? I don't give a shit about battery if it stays plugged in

[sly halo]

Main reason can't even lie

[hollow creek]

nope. the only thing it helps with is with battery.

[sly halo]

If i couldn't find a laptop with a decent screen I would get the ps5 with a monitor

[fringe prairie]

ew 7435hs

ggs battery life

[hollow creek]

also, i may argue that not having igpu helps lol. more power to cpu

[fringe prairie]

if you care about battery life get victus

[sly halo]

Couldn't care less ngl

[fringe prairie]

then why not desktop

[sly halo]

I dont i have a mac, this is pure gaming

[sly halo]

I'm moving for uni

Cant be bothered

[fringe prairie]

matx/itx would work

[hollow creek]

well theres SFF like im doing moving for work. but perhaps you dont wanna bother carrying monitor around

[fringe prairie]

what are the prices

[sly halo]

I could get a ps but I dont like paying for each game I share a steam library

[sly halo]

Exactly the same

[wind jackal]

wgat

[fringe prairie]

which is...

[sly halo]

Yep thats the exact reason

[sly halo]

around a grand

[fringe prairie]

usa?

[sly halo]

ye

[hollow creek]

im betting mounting issue or you dont have pbo or you have a meh tower cooler or aio

or your paste dries up

[fringe prairie]

got a microcenter near you?

[sly halo]

Yea I do

[hollow creek]

smol gemeng pc
not the smallest, but smaller than nr200p definitely

[fringe prairie]

nr200p is big for itx

iirc it's 20L

costs as much as some itx cases which are way smaller

[hollow creek]

yeah, had to wrap it and everything for flight, very heavy too

but it had alot of space so it was fun

[sly halo]

I really wanna get a pc but I'll be moving so often for the next few months and then imma move for uni too

[sly halo]

PS could be reasonable if yall think itll perform better than these cuz imma get a tv with it too or a monitor

[hollow creek]

you can do something like mine and have two monitors, one at home and one at the uni
thats what im doing anyway for work. if you have money to spare that is

[sly halo]

moving the desktop is still too much work no?

[fringe prairie]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/396571755142?

rather this. better cpu, build quality, and gpu

[sinful cobalt]

ch160 is also almost 20l yea…

[fringe prairie]

not if it's small enough

[hollow creek]

depends on the size. for mine, no
there are small form factor cases that can fit your laptop bag. altho trying to get every component to fit would probably cost a lot of money

board alone is probably 200

[sinful cobalt]

its big as fk

[fringe prairie]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/nYXMnQ/pc-cooler-i100-pro-mesh-mini-itx-desktop-case-c3-a110whp0-gl

7.5L but i've never heard of the company

[wind jackal]

lol all of those is wrong 😭 i think its just a sensor reporting wrong

[sinful cobalt]

alternatively get the t1 at like 9.x litres

[hollow creek]

9800x3D LETS GOOOOOOOOOO burns

[wind jackal]

wgat

[hollow creek]

time for a cpu upgrade xD

[sly halo]

I fucking love u

[sinful cobalt]

i have 9800x3d on asrock mobo and pbo enabled

[hollow creek]

how much power is that 4070 anyway?

[sinful cobalt]

time to play with fire

[hollow creek]

i assume not asrock board?

[sly halo]

Its HP they dont tell u

[sinful cobalt]

asrock mobo

[sly halo]

they're shy

[hollow creek]

ah you like taking gambles dont you

[sinful cobalt]

it was before the incidents came up lmao

[hollow creek]

eh they used to advertise power, but i guess not anymore

[sly halo]

you saved me $320 @fringe prairie tysm

[hollow creek]

still alive indicates its probably never an asrock issue but rather AMD

[sly halo]

Yeah they decrease the power so they can advertise the battery life

[tight root]

has anyone had the issue where embedded videos in the discord app are suuper laggy and buffer slowly?

[sinful cobalt]

it is an AMD issue, they’re hiding behind the board partners

[sly halo]

Which is more likely to increase sales since its easier to understand for the consumer

[sinful cobalt]

discord issue in total

[tight root]

is there no fix because its super irritating

[wind jackal]

pretty sure the dgpu is completely disabled while on battery

or extremely limited

[hollow creek]

i mean i dont mind them. as long as its not 110w 4070 or sumthing

[sinful cobalt]

notice that asrock has the most cases, but even other board partners have some incidents so it IS amd, just hiding and staying silent behind board partners

[sly halo]

the 4060 was 75w so

According to the reviews atleast

[fringe prairie]

140W

[sinful cobalt]

imho I’d get a 5060 laptop bcs of MFG tho it is a hot take to some

[sly halo]

Thats pretty good

[hollow creek]

well technically we can say asrock has most cases cause its literally one of the only board available in stock at the time/cheapest

[sly halo]

dayum

[fringe prairie]

releases june 30th

[hollow creek]

or they keep testing using the same brand

[fringe prairie]

as long as it's min 105W it'll be good

performance caps out around there

[sinful cobalt]

no their PBO voltage was too aggressive, they arent top seller for mobos

[sinful cobalt]

o thought they alr released ig i just saw the preorders

[hollow creek]

still, i would argue asus would look at the same issue too since asrock is owned by asus

[sinful cobalt]

they are now separate entities

[hollow creek]

still same owner, operating differently

and there are cases that asus board having issues with x3D

[sinful cobalt]

which is why they arent having the same problems since they are literally now separate

[steel umbra]

buy the loq

[sly halo]

You know with the money I saved I could get like 8 games

[sinful cobalt]

this gen everyone is affected

7000 asus was purposely doing it

and they were doing anti consumer shit

[fringe prairie]

or the omen i linked above...

[sinful cobalt]

“update to this bios at ur own risk cuz if u do we void the warranty”
-asus

[steel umbra]

much better

[sly halo]

thanks tho genuinely i never checked microcenter

forgot they existed

[sinful cobalt]

MC is the goat for pc parts in USA apparently idk i dont live there

[fringe prairie]

just gpu prices ngl

sometimes bundles as well

and macs/laptops

[sinful cobalt]

malware saying my pc has issues lmao

[sly halo]

Hate these antivirus softwares

[frigid blade]

Nah it’s eBay for used

And a lot of new stuff

If you wait long enough for a good deal

[sly halo]

I'm scared to buy used stuff

refurbished is fine but from random people nah

[frigid blade]

if it doesn’t work you just get refunded

[sinful cobalt]

are we talking abt used tho?

[frigid blade]

I always buy from reputable sellers on eBay

[frigid blade]

No clue, I also mentioned new stuff

[sly halo]

What if I get the item throw it on the floor and request a refund

[frigid blade]

Generally a seller will take photos of it as they package

They’ll show that to eBay and then you’ll have to report your mail guy

[robust trail]

Perfect. Skyrim. Bloody Mary, chillin.

[left dove]

It is a sad day.

My server box has perished.

[steel hornet]

Hey Guys, So I have a Lenovo Thinkpad P16s Gen 2 with AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 7545U, Is it possible to run an EGPU on it and play heavy games? I am talking about using an EGPU enclosure with and AMD Graphics Card such as RX 7900XT (dont ask why not just get a Desktop PC, I am working on it) and connecting it to the USB 4.0 Port of the laptop, I read that USB 4.0 could include a PCIe Link or Tunneling. I just want to know if that's feasible and possible

[hidden hill]

Can’t find the option to change primary bios display in the asus bios

I just want to make my main monitor the one that the bios screen is on

[formal sonnet]

Based on a quick internet search, you should be able to use an eGPU enclosure with laptops that have USB4.

My PS5 isn’t accepting my disks

[thorny saddle]

Anyone here have a 5090 and Plague Tale Requiem?

[junior valve]

who else got a 5090 besides you here

[thorny saddle]

a number of people

[winter lantern]

Around 5090 people

[thorny saddle]

I think my issue is w/ the game not drivers - Plague Tale Requiem with ray tracing turned on stutters like crazy - unplayable, have had to restart a checkpoint like 8 times because moving my mouse an inch will hitch and then my player does a like 360 turn delayed its horrible

[winter lantern]

Framegen moment

[thorny saddle]

its not

I get 128-140 fps natively

[winter lantern]

So its not even on?

[thorny saddle]

the game hitches hard

no frame gen is not on

its very popular

No its not

uh, sure

Very popular is mainstream

Ive heard of it which is something

it was nominated for Game of the Year

something like 3-4M players, lol

[winter lantern]

In 2022 lol

[thorny saddle]

Yes...

[winter lantern]

What was the best game in those nominations

[thorny saddle]

I don't know, but to say Plague Tale series is unpopular is insane

[winter lantern]

I see it in the gamepass catalog thats about it

[thorny saddle]

OK case closed its unpopular

[winter lantern]

So bro agrees??

[thorny saddle]

No you're ridiculous lol

[winter lantern]

It was somewhat popular in a shit year of gaming

Man this cpu gets hot

[rare salmon]

bad laptop?

[fallen sky]

-too hot
-50% ram usage when idle

I’ll only miss the storage

[fallen sky]

I need 1tb breh

[fallen sky]

Acer swift 16 ai

My mom got it for me for my birthday

it has OLED 120hz screen and it’s 15”

Butttttt

[thorn pewter]

bro

[rare salmon]

what CPU?

[thorn pewter]

what model

[rare salmon]

i mean laptops do run hot and the fans will be loud

[fallen sky]

Wdym what model 💔

[thorn pewter]

tune them

[thorn pewter]

what sku of the acer laptop you have

i think the issue is coming from not maximizing what you have

and pluss tuning the fans will make thel quiter and cool better

[fallen sky]

[thorn pewter]

did she buy it new?

[fallen sky]

yeah

[thorn pewter]

well be thankful that she gave you that , its not a terrible laptop at all

[fallen sky]

And I am thankful

[thorn pewter]

you could tune it to be much better

[fallen sky]

Said I can return and get something else if I want

I like that It has 2 USB-C

that’s nice 🙂

[thorn pewter]

undervolt+fan tune+oc+xmp to 6400 u will be much happier

[fallen sky]

word?

Oh yeah I didn’t even go into bios yet

[quaint hatch]

[fallen sky]

are you under the age of 20

You won’t get it if not

this is gen alpha type shit ig

[fallen sky]

💔

[thorn pewter]

but anyways

[fallen sky]

Holy bajeesus all of this pre-installed bloatware

There are tens of apps

[thorn pewter]

you can get a 4070 laptop with a core ultra cpu for like 999

[fallen sky]

I won’t be playing games

[thorn pewter]

soo you see were this is going?

[fallen sky]

Do tell

[thorn pewter]

de-bloat win by waching the almsot latets ltt vid

it talks about setting up a windows install properly

[fallen sky]

this damn windows installation from the mct takes so long

Oooh I like this bios

[thorn pewter]

and then after that i presume you will see the ram utilization will dip quite a bit

[fallen sky]

Clean 🤷

What in the hell is network boot

[hollow creek]

click on in some app and itll tell your laptop to turn on via tcp/ip

[formal sonnet]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_booting

[thorn pewter]

i would recommend tho and this goes to really anyone, please dont buy any new laptop that has "AI" as a big thing for it, any ai laptops are generally overly expensive and not worth it

[fallen sky]

parents just do what they think their kid will like so I don’t blame her

I’m happy with this

[hollow creek]

processors with "AI" nametag is fine, laptop definitely isn't
would just have to look into specs alittle bit

[quaint hatch]

tbh even my local shity walmart back in austin has a laptop with a 4070 and a core ultra 9 cpu at less price than that with ample storage and mem

you do this thru software

[hollow creek]

theres throttlestop, if anyone still uses that

[fallen sky]

Nevermind

Mr water ain’t nothing work 🙏🙏🙏

[fallen sky]

I’ll try this

[thorn pewter]

yeah

xtu is somewhat of an ass to get it to work

[fallen sky]

Holy shit what am I looking at

I guess there is a guide for a reason

Rip can’t undervolt

[rare salmon]

9950X will be the CPU going in, any changes or should i just order?

[fallen sky]

R u editing videos or sum

[thorn pewter]

the use for that cpu could quite literally be anything

[fallen sky]

No I mean the ram

Why the HELL do you need 64GB of ram

[trim gyro]

looks like it would be a pretty sick system though

[fallen sky]

I never saw anyone go past 32 for non video editing

[thorn pewter]

million trillions of things you could need 64 gigs of ram for

[fallen sky]

I can think of 1

[thorn pewter]

one for exampel is running llms

[fallen sky]

whatever that is

Ur def over the age of 20

Ohhhh it’s ai?

Basically

[thorn pewter]

yeh

and also

[fallen sky]

I love this throttle stop thing :D

[thorn pewter]

just using chrome and opening several intensive tabs will fill up storage quite a bit, with gaming and streaming and that it will exceed 32 quite a lot

[fallen sky]

Fair

[thorn pewter]

plus

like too many other things needs much ram lol

running vms is just of of many you can use

[rare salmon]

photo editing and rendering things into time lapses

[fallen sky]

Idk about u but 32 works fine for me

I stopped taking photos but it was smooth

[rare salmon]

ever heard of a program called LR Timelapse?

[fallen sky]

Helllll no

[thorn pewter]

this guy is either 30 or just started middle school there is not in between😂

no hate tho🫶

[rare salmon]

uses lightroom but allows key frames to be set and you can run hundreds of edits at once

[rare salmon]

i was using 32 in 2017.... id rather move to 128gb but need 64gb DIMMs for that

64gb is even low for PS and LR use

[fallen sky]

[thorn pewter]

now make this dude grasp the capacity of gpmi lol

moose would go nuts

[hollow creek]

not when pictures/contents you get are at least 4k resolution each and you need to combine them

[rare salmon]

layers

[fallen sky]

ts

[hollow creek]

yes, and usually, there is quite alot

[fallen sky]

I see

[hollow creek]

32gb is usually enough.. until its not

[rare salmon]

i use this to put 300 to 2000 photos into a video at once https://lrtimelapse.com/

it will put all that RAM and as many cores to use as you can throw at it

[thorn pewter]

throw dual 2699v4s at it🙏

[rare salmon]

cameras are not cheap so we have to budget

any changes though? id like to have things by Wednesday so i can build this over the days off work

[limber nacelle]

2699v4s are cheap as shit

becuase broadwell is probably older than some people in the server

[fallen sky]

Oh my goodness I learned I can mirror my iPhone to windows

[limber nacelle]

oh i lied, 2699v4 in particular isn't cheap

from the perspective of technogloical development, 9 years might as well make it prehistoric

isn't 96gb a bit overkill

add ark ascended for 208gb and your 1tb drive is full 💔💔

not when you render stuff out and it maxes 64gb

normal game size soon

[tidal geyser]

I have :3
I have not really seen it anything use more then 32GB

[kindred halo]

Why're you playing CoD </3

[rare salmon]

more textures = larger graphics files

[timid meteor]

play nethack, fast to download

[kindred halo]

Play CS, and even that game is a bit large

Simply the only game you'll ever need

[kindred halo]

Although bloated with unnecessary textures (skins, etc)
And.. From what I've heard, lack of optimisation too

when you take 700+ individual photos, use key frames to edit, then slap it into LRT and make them into a movie.... Rendering out at 4k is not easy https://fixupx.com/T_Heard/status/1420201323643826180

time lapse of a downburst over Cottonwood on Saturday 7.24.2021, had to rerender it down to 1080p so twitter would show it. 4k Youtube link in tweet below #azwx #StormHour #Monsoon2021

Arizona

[fallen sky]

Ah nice

I’m in cali

[kindred halo]

Five. Hundred. Petabytes.

[rare salmon]

and remember, SSD's should be capped at 80% to prevent the drives to degrade faster than they should

[sand epoch]

cuz I have invested a lot of money and it's the only fast paced fps I can satisfy my adhd with

cs is a lot slow paced compared to cod

[kindred halo]

CS2 Arms Race

[sand epoch]

what's that

[kindred halo]

:3c

[sand epoch]

is that like gun game?

[kindred halo]

Yes

Used to play it alot back in the GO era, don't know much abt it now

[sand epoch]

oh right i don't like gun game because of the trash games they give sometimes

[junior valve]

it is

[sand epoch]

for gamers who are playing new AAA mp games def no

unless you only download like 2 games at a time

[kindred halo]

Fair enough

Hmmm..
You'd probably like Battlefield 4's Operation Metro & Lockers

Enclosed, high speed, lots of fuckery

[sand epoch]

a pity i never got to experience peak battlefield as it was

I started gaming in 2020-21

[kindred halo]

Sir, I started playing battlefield 4 in 2022

You can find matches today

It's still going strong

[sand epoch]

oh lmao i tried out bf2042 in 2023 but didn't like it cuz of so many campers and they aren't that fast paced

battlefield is completely different

[rich blaze]

hello i have a really fast and random question

i just got a windows 11 compter for work and i want the icons on the task bar to look like this when in use not the small icon on the bar like the steam icon (inactive)

any way to do that?

[kindred halo]

You're much much better off with 1, 4, and V

[rich blaze]

i like seeing the taskbar have the name next to it

[kindred halo]

V has the best gunplay of them all

Atmosphere of 1, gunplay of 4++

[rich blaze]

opps this isn't the tech support sorry

unless someone has an answer

[kindred halo]

Check Google

[fallen sky]

New day time to try the new flagle 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

[rich blaze]

i tried but im not sure of the wording
preview brings up the small icon window when googling

[rich blaze]

thank you i didn't see that when i was looking but i will look again

saving

[kindred halo]

Why does no site know the R5 7400F??

[thorn pewter]

oem cpu not mainstream like others

[kindred halo]

Oh

Makes sense, thank ya

Although cheapest AM5 CPU sooo :3

[tidal geyser]

8400f

[kindred halo]

Better than 8400F too since it has enough usable PCIe lanes to support a GPU & NVMe

[rigid fjord]

technically an 8300g would be the cheapest even though it's oem only

[kindred halo]

8400F is JUUST about more expensive, 125 USD

7400F is 122 lmao

[kindred halo]

Unavailable here though unfortunately

[rigid fjord]

unavailable to pretty much everyone consumer wise

[kindred halo]

It's either 7400F or 8400F

[kindred halo]

Fair enough

It'll still be a good piece of decoration once I replace it next next upgrade batch

The double next is on purpose yes

[serene python]

isnt the 8400f kinda dated right now?

[tidal geyser]

Uhhhh

[serene python]

its coffee lake right?

[true stirrup]

It's AM5... AM5 isn't dated

[serene python]

wait

what

[tidal geyser]

8th gen did not have f

[kindred halo]

</3 I meannnn
Yes and no

[hollow creek]

thing was released like last year

unless youre referring to intel......

[serene python]

i t...

[tidal geyser]

He was

But he is not a pc god and did not know there are no 8th gen f cpus

[serene python]

who is he

[hollow creek]

understandable

[stray olive]

What is the popular case everyone use nowadays after 011 dynamic? Im a bit outdated, trying to find a new case.

[kindred halo]

Oh wow a 5700 XT is 100 US

A 2070 for reference is 150

[sweet patio]

How do i switch from using GPU1 to GPU0? GPU0 is better but system defaults to 1(NVDIA control panel doesn't let me for some reason)

[true stirrup]

Space heater

[kindred halo]

As in it's not more useful than one or it gets that hot

[true stirrup]

It gets really hot

Good GPU for the price tho

[kindred halo]

It's not the blower one so maybe not as hot

Sapphire model,,,, need to find the listing again

[tidal geyser]

wat

[tidal geyser]

every person i have sold it to has had driver issues

as in pc with rx 5700 xt, yes great price for it for the performance but they just have driver issues

tbh anything before rx 6000 is just a nightmare

[kindred halo]

Fair enough

[tidal geyser]

but nvidia cards are just stable, ofc make sure you at a minnimum grab something gtx 900 or newer

[plush wren]

https://tenor.com/view/amd-nvidia-geforce-pc-explode-explosion-gif-23625713

[tidal geyser]

anything 6000 or newer is now smoother then nvidia

[rare salmon]

team red and green

[plush wren]

[tidal geyser]

now dis is nice

NUUU

[junior valve]

anything but gigabyte

[plush wren]

small price of 605€

[junior valve]

[plush wren]

[junior valve]
